Well... Sorry if I misunderstood your intent, but as worded, it seemed that you were trying to downplay the virulence of the COVID virus. |

...It's not that infectious. I guess you have not seen, read or heard of the HIGHLY CONTAGIOUS VARIENTS (U.K. & BRAZILIAN, AFRICAN) spreading through the world? |

Well...In reply to "how do you avoid an entire population of infectious persons?" I said "You can't give it to your neighbour if either of you are indoors. It's not that infectious." Open window, gust of wind, now the entire neighborhood has it. |

Guilty! Guilty of what? Did I put the apostrophe in the wrong place? Lynched. Well I know several people who would mandate that punishment for getting an apostrophe wrong! |

Well I know several people who would mandate that punishment for getting an apostrophe wrong!Isn't there medication for that? Yes. It's called a 4x2 delivered to the back of the skull. |

What would be the meaning if the apostrophe were removed? A sign outside a block of flats, “Residents’ refuse to be placed in bins." or getting away from the apostrophe, see how punctuation completely changes the meaning of this string of words. “A woman, without her man, is nothing,” “A woman: without her, man is nothing.” |

Is that a 2x4 held sideways for a higher force per surface area?Yes. It's called a 4x2 delivered to the back of the skull.Well I know several people who would mandate that punishment for getting an apostrophe wrong!Isn't there medication for that? The only instructions seen, say "Try to always use a flat surface, otherwise it could get messy." |
